On day 5 we went to see the lights in Charlotte. And over there there was a living Christmas village. It was late at night so it was quite magical…although it was late at night and the girls were tired! ;)Le 5 on est allé voir des lumières sur la piste de course à Charlotte. Là-bas il y avait un village de Noël vivant. C'était magique.

I decided to incorporate more photos of the animals than of the lights.J'ai choisi plus de photos du village que des lumières.

This little stamp (Make some Magic) is from Ali Edwards and was also in the kit. I simply adore it!!La petite étampe ici c,est Ali Edwards et je l'adore!!!

Right in the middle of the spread, I added a 5x7 page protector from Becky Higgins. Bigger pictures are awesome to make a good statement. Here I feel like with only one photo, we have a good idea of what we saw over there. No need to put the picture of every single light sculpture we saw.J'ai ajouté une pochette 5x7 de Becky Higgins pour pouvoir ajouter un agrandissement.

I decorated the photo simply with a number and a circle tag.J'ai décoré très simplement.

On the other side I cut out a piece of paper from the kit to fit in the pocket and I embellished it with only one big die cut (Pretty Little Studio!) and I added some gold ink drops.De l'autre coté de la page, un papier à motifs, un die cut de père-Noël et des gouttes d'encre dorée.

Here's Arielle on her camel. This is a iPhone photo and the quality is not great, but I rather have a good memory recorded with a poor photo than having no memories recorded.Arielle sur son chameau. La qualité de cette photo prise avec mon iphone n'est pas super mais ce n'est pas grave. J'aime mieux une photo moins bonne et un souvenir qu'une superbe photo sans souvenir. :)

Here I've cut the star in half so that the bottom would show under this long banner.

Ici j'ai coupé l'étoile en deux.

Day 6/Jour 6

On day 6 we did many things: we did our Christmas tree, we went to see Santa at night in our club house and we went to see an impressive house!Le 6 on a fait plein de choses: pere-noel, sapin de Noël et encore une fois on est allé voir des lumières.

This is a card I made with a simple brush and black ink. I added a wood veneer from Cosmo Cricket and a puffy heart.J'ai fait cette carte avec de l'encre noire et un pinceau. La petite enveloppe est de Cosmo Cricket.

When I have many stories on one day, I try to make a nice ending and a new beginning by starting the second story on the other side of the page.Quand j'ai beaucoup d'histoires en une seule journée, j'essaie de ne mettre qu'une histoire par page.

Here's the house with all it's lights and on the right side we have the decorating of the tree. The order of the events doesn't really fit, but I'm fine with that.Ici vous pouvez voir la maison du quartier qui est toute illuminée (pas la mienne) ainsi que notre beau sapin en train de se faire décorer.

This little piece is an embossed stamp from the December Daily kit.

Ca ici c'est une étampe d'ail Edward que j'ai embossée en doré.
